The fierce attacks descended like a storm from the sky, enveloping Luo Hou and the other members of the Mysterious Clan, along with the island that had transformed into Calamity Soil.
Intense explosions erupted.
Not only did Luo Hou and the other members of the Mysterious Clan suffer severe damage, but even the island transformed into Calamity Soil was pulverized by the ferocious attacks, a sight too tragic to bear.
All members of the Mysterious Clan, including Luo Hou, vomited blood. Some of the weaker ones immediately turned into blood mist, spreading into the Void, annihilated by the wild energy.
However, the Calamity Unlucky Qi emanating from their deaths did not dissipate; no matter how violently the energy clashed, it could not obliterate it!
Luo Hou and several Mysterious Ancestors, as if driven mad, let their black blood flow without attempting to stop it. Instead, the moment they stabilized, they let out a wretched laugh.
"You cannot kill us!"
"From your emotions, we feel your fear, trembling, panic, dread, shivering..."
"From today onward, the Calamity Unlucky Qi will bloom and bear fruit throughout the entire Chaos, whether it’s the Great Thousand World in the Boundary Sea or the Primordial, no one can escape!"
"By then, this realm will be ended by us!"
The sinister laughter of Luo Hou and others caused Hong Jun and the other powerhouses to furrow their brows, but in the next second, Luo Hou and his group did something that completely took them by surprise.
Luo Hou grabbed a piece of shattered Calamity Soil, his body flickered with black light, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from sight of the powerhouses.
The other members of the Mysterious Clan followed Luo Hou’s example, grabbed shattered Calamity Soil, used the Mysterious Technique, and vanished from the sight of the powerhouses.
Watching Luo Hou and the other members of the Mysterious Clan escape, all the powerhouses were stunned in place, blankly watching them disappear under their eyelids.
By the time they reacted, Luo Hou and the other members of the Mysterious Clan had already disappeared into the boundless Boundary Sea, no matter how they used secret techniques, they couldn’t find any trace of them.
"Damn it! To think they managed to escape!"
"We must quickly mobilize the power within the Boundary Sea to locate them, otherwise the true infestation of Calamity Unlucky Power will put us all in endless danger."
"The Power of Calamity, where on earth does this power come from and why is it so mysterious? The Tao Law seems very fragile in their presence!"
"Beings that are corroded by the Calamity Unlucky Power completely lose themselves; I’d rather die than be invaded by that power!"
"Luo Hou and his group are a bunch of failures!"
"Not to be underestimated though, the Calamity Unlucky Power is far too terrifying; just a slight carelessness can lead to infection. We need to find them quickly to prevent chaos in this realm!"
The powerhouses looked in the direction Hong Jun and the others left with complex expressions.
They did not want to be infected by the Calamity Unlucky Power, did not want to turn into red-haired monsters that lost their selves, and did not want to become members of the Mysterious Clan.
But if they can never achieve transcendence, no one can guarantee if they will eventually turn into that.
After all, as time passes, the human heart can change.
Hong Jun, Shichen, Yang Mei, Time-Space Daoist, Chi You, Eleven Ancestor Witches, and Lady Ping Xin, all mighty beings, gathered together to discuss.
"Gentlemen, can anyone discern the origin of the Calamity Unlucky Power on Luo Hou and others?!" said Hong Jun.
Actually, his original intention was to ask Shichen, as Shichen is the strongest among them, already half-stepped into the Tao Realm.
With just another step, he would transcend this world and become the fourth transcendent being.
Meanwhile, he is also the master of the Time Dao, capable of seeing things unknown to others. However, considering the feelings of others, Hong Jun converted the question meant for Shichen alone into one that asked everyone.
The aim was not to offend the others.
Shichen furrowed his brows, lowered his head in contemplation, and showed no intention of answering. His old friend Yang Mei, seeing this, smiled and said, "The change in Luo Hou and others is related to their shattered Tao Heart!
When Fang Han transcended, his Tao Heart was already unbalanced. Plus, being inherently aligned with the Demon Path and other negative Daos such as destruction, it’s normal to be tainted by the Calamity Unlucky Qi!"
Although he did not know where the Calamity Unlucky Power on Luo Hou and others really came from, he could guess the reason.
The Power of Calamity has been somewhat understood during their confrontation with the Mysterious Clan. Being cultivators of their level, as long as their Tao Heart is firm and they remain alert against the invasion of Calamity Unlucky Power, they would not fall like Luo Hou and others.
"However! That Calamity Unlucky Power is too peculiar, different from any force in this realm. Even the Immortal King under the Ancestor Witch Zhu Jiuyin in the Primordial Life Forbidden Zone and his Mysterious Clan are not as terrifying!"
Zhu Jiuyin said with a grave expression.
His Divine Skill also involves the Time Law, though not as powerful as Shichen, it’s not to be underestimated.
Just now, he had used the Law of Time to peek into the future and the past. Although he didn’t see the origin of the Calamity Unlucky Power, he did see some clues.
Thus, he was sure that the Power of Calamity was different from the powers of this realm.
"Indeed, that Mysterious Power is truly different from any of the Three Thousand Great Daos. If I’m not mistaken, this power should originate from beyond the heavens!"
